and another old brown bottle - 1/11/2003 12:04:26 AM    Guest This one is really cool. Is it possible a beer bottle? It appears to have an applied top as the seams stop half way up the neck.The seams are quite rough, the bottom is embossed with really crude numbers 38. Has a few bubbles and also pimples? like. Thanks again, Marlya Hope I am not wearing out my welcome here already with so many questions. Attachment (1)   Post #: 1

Not only the dark brown coloring, but the neck shape strongly suggests that to me. I' m no beer expert (don' t even drink!), but that' s got my vote. --Andy (in reply to Guest) Post #: 2

RE: and another old brown bottle - 1/25/2003 5:43:26 PM    Guest Further to the previos reply I agree its probably a beer, judging from the neatness of the applied top it is probably just before bottle making machines came into general use - about 1920 here in the UK.
